Countries are most often built on common myths – shared narratives – about the nation’s past and/or the country’s mission (Renan 1882). Most of the time, these narratives feature a common enemy rhetoric, that is to say, they centre around a common threat or enemy that the nation needs to fight for peace and unity of the country to prevail.

Abstract

Most of the time, these narratives feature a common enemy rhetoric, that is to say, they centre around a common threat or enemy that the nation needs to fight for peace and unity of the country to prevail.File in questo prodotto:
